2024’s biggest highlight: My sci-fi screenplay has gone from concept to realization — winning Austin Film Fest Best Short Screenplay, and now shooting’s begun (still in progress, but an incredible journey thus far!!) Whatever future holds, grateful to everyone on this path with me.
Finally watched the 1939 Wizard of Oz!! Wild that its set designs seem so timeless. The dazzling and colorful absurdity, such sparks of imagination!! Thought of Charlie & Chocolate Factory, and of course — Wicked. Just timeless. ✨

Navy SEAL. Harvard Doctor. NASA Astronaut. Don’t Tell Mom About This Overachiever.
